James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“Owners who sold in The Cove Building 1 made 2.6% a year, and 31% of them sold at a loss. Few homes are for sale against the pace of sales, so a home at the right price sells quickly. That record is weak. I would only buy below the last sold price for the same layout.”

Resale and off-plan prices by bedroom

Resale = a completed home sold on. Off-plan = a home sold before the tower is complete, by the developer or by an earlier buyer (a Land Department "delayed sell"). The two are different markets, so we never mix them in one price. Sold = median price of sales in the 12 months to 19 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A median needs 5 sales or 3 listings.

TypeResale: soldResale: per sq ftMedian askingRent a year

3-bedunder 5 (2)–– (1)AED 300,000 (5)
4-bedunder 5 (1)–– (0)– (0)

Rents are asking rents, not registered contracts. Yield = asking rent divided by the median resale price, before service charge.

Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (1 of 136 here): bulk transfers, meaning 5 or more completed homes sold within two days at prices per sq ft within 25% of each other (0); a sale at exactly the same price as that unit's sale before (1); a size more than 1.6 times the usual size for the recorded type, or a "studio" above 750 sq ft (0). They stay in the list below with a label.

Resale price per sq ft rose 2% in a year

Median AED 2,357 per sq ft in the last 12 months (16 resale sales) against AED 2,313 in the 12 months before (14 resale sales).

Method, sources and what we did not find

  • Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 19 Jan 2020 to 19 Oct 2026, checked by year against Dubai Land Department open data. Our unit list does not hold every sale, so some sales are missing.
  • Listings: one snapshot, 7 Oct 2026. Asking prices and asking rents.
  • Residents and building facts: Google Maps reviews and guide pages (Building guide from live adverts (facts and resident opinions; rewrite in your own words; cite as "live adverts")., Developer material (the developer's own project page and brochure; marketing text, not residents)., Resident and public material found on the open web (one passage per block; source and date under each)., live adverts: community guide), read by an AI model on 21 Oct 2026 with a fixed question list. A script checks that each answer names its source.
  • Nobody visited the tower. Every fact is from a document, a map or a resident's review.
  • Checked, not found for this tower: a Google Maps place, resident reviews, guides, a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit, a licensed photo.
